But here's the real reason for his troubles, Himself:

Thornton, 34, went on his killing spree moments after he was forced to resign when confronted with video evidence that he had been stealing and reselling beer.

Most blacks feel as if their being decriminated against when something doesn't go the way they want it to. . It's the "blame whitey" mentality that's been spoonfed to them their entire lives. The sad part is there are many whites that believe that bullshit too.

You're point is? I'm willing to bet the killer is himself a black man.

Why so defensive? The standard profile for a serial killer is a white male between certain ages. There have been some women, and there has been ONE team of a black man with a manipulated black teenager under his complete control that I remember. The overwhelming trend is still the standard profile. I saw the next posts. There is a difference between serial killing and mass murder.

And fit the profile of "serial," although more closely fits the profile of "spree."
Meanwhile, a few on your list do so as well, but only a few. Compared to overall stats, it ain't all that.

Why I asked you about your sensitivity is the idea that a serial killing has to be racially motivated. The racial component of the victims is ONE thing, only one. Could be age, could be gender. Instead OR as well. Could be they're connected in a much tighter way, and that would discount a serial killer entirely, as the motivation would change. You just don't know. But YOU, you had to go with the "I'd bet he's black" thing. Hell, could be the killer is a female. Could be she kills black men because a boy stood her up for the prom, and it reminded her of when dad didn't come home for Thanksgiving. There is all SORTS of shit that trigger disproportionate responses in people. YOU though, you had to pin it on a black guy right out of the box.
And before you get all innocent, I'd like to highlight an item from your own list"

FUCK you Lone.

You're an idiot but I suspect you already know that. The fact is I never mentioned a motivation for this suspected serial killer, I simply stated that I was willing to bet the suspect was himself a black man. I doubt the killer is female judging from the method of the attacks.

My reasoning for pinning it on a black guy, to use your terminology, is simply because of the fact that most black men are killed by other black men. A study by the Bureau of Justice Statistics found that from 2001 to 2005, more than nine out of 10 black murder victims were killed by other blacks.

Now I could be wrong, but I doubt it. And why the "fuck you Lone"? I didn't type the word you bolded, I cut and pasted it and provided the source. If you have a problem with the word "******" , then that's on you, not me.
